Ok, I suppose I could contribute some info to this subject as I'm sure Mark will aventually too. The true TG settings which was mentioned by Gameboy9 should be the ones to use. Only because if a player were to have a really good game and wanted to get recognition through TG (i.e. book, web page database) for their accomplishment these are the settings they would have to play on. Otherwise, the skies the limit. Perhaps after disscussing with Mark and Walter, we could come up with a resonable "tournament" setting for this game to help cut down on play time. Other then Mark, myself and maybe another player or two, were the only ones that can play for over an hour a game. I believe Marks top game lasted him around the 2 hour mark. That's still not classed as a marathon game. Another thing to take into consideration is that this game gets incredibly harder as you get higher in the stages and the only one person to reach the peak of the harder stages was Mark and even know he got through it, he still never reached the kill screen (256) but managed a phenominal game by far. I will try tonight and break my 'NEW' record which I got last Friday night of 1,790,830 (stage 115) hopfully breaking the 2M mark and will keep track of the time it takes me to play it.(posted 9278 days ago)Regards, Steve Krogman
